| Say it with folwers Burntwood Fellowship entered Burntwood in Bloom competions |
The person who has inspired me the most
within the organisation's is Margret Coomby I first met Margaret in 1990 when I
joined the Sedgley unit.
The first meeting was as if I had known
Margret all my life, she was warm and welcoming and introduce me to all her
volunteers. I found that Margret had built up the Sedgley unit along with John
Kelly to one of the largest volunteer units in the West Midlands. Whatever Margret asked of every volunteer
they were always willing to help her, this shows what a warm kind, generous and
hardworking unit manager she was. Margret never got any of her volunteers to
undertake any duty that she was not prepared to take herselfe, she was always
the first, but always the last to leave a duty.
Every volunteer were given personal challenges to grow within the
organisation.
When I moved back to Burntwood and took on
the Burntwood Cadets and Badger unit, I
wanted to run the unit as Margret ran the Sedgley unit that was to be friendly
non-clicky and for every volunteer to respect one another and have pride in
their own abilities. Thank you Margret for your inspiration and kindness and
your very high standers.
